Kevra I

Planet located in the Kevra System, the home system of the Alti Dominion.   Kevra I is a lava planet and is obviously uninhabitable. Although it orbits its parent star at a very short radius, it has almost no atmosphere despite its average surface gravitation, as it has almost no magnetosphere. Thus it is exposed to all solar radiation from the star, making it difficult to mine on safely. Although the Alti can shield from this radiation within their facilities, anyone attempting to leave will also need to be fitted with radiation shields. This can add a lot of weight, especially since these people already must wear a heat protective space suit. As such, this is not often done so they mostly live in the facitlities and habitats.   Due to the extremely resource rich nature of the planet, Kevra I is one of the first planets the Alti Dominion exploited in mass. Though most of the planet is still devoid of mining structures, a large portion of the surface is covered with them, releasing pollutants into the atmosphere. These pollutants have little impact on the planet because it is uninhabitable and is often released into space as Kevra I lacks a strong magnetosphere. Kevra I produces a massive amount of ship building material to the Dominion which is mainly used for the war effort. Most periodic table elements can be found on Kevra I up to uranium, some elements being more common than others. Some elements such as technetium cannot be found naturally on Kevra I. Some parts are also produced here, taking advantage of the malleable nature of hot metal to shape metal into complex shapes, sometimes also casting more simple shapes. These are delivered to logistics stations orbiting Kevra I via large space elevators, the materials mostly being shipped off to various factories to build starships with, possibly all within the Kevra system. For a faction on the scale of the Alti dominion, one planet can never produce enough resources to sustain the entire society, but Kevra I is particularly well known for its particular resource output. Due ot its lack of atmosphere, Kevra I reflects the vast majority of light that reaches the surface so it is far colder than would be predicted of an average planet at its extremly small orbital radius, despite its incredible heat.
